Twins may be either monozygotic or dizygotic. The former are produced from a single fertilized ovum which replicates during the very early stages of development, whilst the latter are due to the independent release, and subsequentfertilization, of two separate ova.Monozygotic twinsare, with very rar...
While extremely rare, it is possible that each egg is fertilized by sperm cells from two different men, thus forming twins with two different fathers, called bi-paternal twins. According to recent studies published by the National Institutes of Health, it is estimated that approximately 1 in 12...
